** THE SPACE **
Three-tier cottage with sprawling views of Cayuga Lake and ample outdoor space. The first floor features a fully stocked modern kitchen, updated bathroom, and cozy living room. The second floor has three bedrooms: two with lake views, and a third bedroom including a double bed and bunkbeds. The second floor includes a second full bathroom, and the third floor has a fourth bedroom with separate living room, pull-out sofa bed, and kitchenette. *** Note: the second floor bathroom and entire third floor are NOT available between November 1st and May 1st.

Step outside onto the covered patio with overgrown pergola, including dining area, BBQ grill, fire pit, and ample seating. Venture around the corner and onto the dock, with a large picnic table with seating for 12. Our favorite spot: happy hour and dinner on the dock as the sun sets.

Two kayaks are included and available for your use.

**** PLEASE READ the entire listing before booking!

** DETAILS **
You have full exclusive access to the entire home and property during your stay, including the dock. You are welcome to bring your boat(s) to tie up at the dock. Your Vrbo Host does not stay at the property.

Winter: The house features 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, as part of the property is closed for the season. Bedroom #4 (with a double bed) is not available.

Summer: Enjoy all 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a second kitchen on the third floor.

The summer season is between May 1st and November 1st. If booking outside of this season, be mindful of the reduced number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the accessibility of the driveway (see below). Feel free to send us a message if anything is not clear.

*** PLEASE READ! DRIVEWAY ACCESS ***
The house is located at the bottom of a steep gravel driveway with a sharp turn.

You MUST have a 4WD/AWD vehicle to use the driveway. Otherwise, you can park at the top and walk down 125 steps (skip the gym) to access the house and lakefront. You can comfortably fit one vehicle at the waterfront. Additional parking is available at the top of the hill.

* Important Notice *
Use of the gravel driveway is weather dependent during the cold winter months. Extremely cold weather and snow can cause the driveway to become very icy and slippery. Use your best judgement. It is okay to use on mild days, but exercise caution on very cold days. If it’s icy, play it safe. Park up top and walk down.

We cannot guarantee that the driveway will be available between November 1st and May 1st.

** FINAL NOTES **
Dogs without a history of biting are welcome ($150 pet fee applies).

A liability waiver is required prior to check-in.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Such a wonderful rental!! Very large with lake views in almost every window! Large outdoor space with beautiful vines and flowers, fire pit easy to use and was definitely used every night. We had 1 rainy day and the outdoor patio kept us completely dry. Only suggestion I would give is that maybe instead of those 2 chairs in front of indoor fireplace replace with a small love seat of some sort, for more indoor seating (during the colder months) other than that, this rental was perfect and can not wait to book again.

This house was perfect for our group of 10! The fire pit was very easy to use, having the dock was so fun, and the house was great.
